Where did the Blacks or African Americans should go?
The officer was also white.
The Photo show the freedom rides during 1960's by the sperker Martin Luther King,Jr.

KKK- white supremist organization-used violence and terrorism aganist black.
The Freefom rides-Black and whites people helping push aganist segregated buses.often met with violence.
Ross parks-Civil disobedience(disobeyed a law to make a point ,didn't hunt anyone)-refused to give up her seat on the bus to a white person,accepted the consequences (arrest)

The march on Washington-led by MLK Jr -protest march aganist segregation and for voting rights and jobs and equal rights -August 28 1963(MLK Jr"I Have a dream " speech.
"Whites Only"-segregation throughout the South -Jim Crow laws-Segregated bathrooms,fountains ,movie , theater,etc.....School
Governor George Wallance-governor of Alabama -refused to allow integration of U of Alabama Until President Kennedy sent troops to demand it-Wallace's motto was "segregation now.......segregation tomorrow....segregation forever........"
